On April 12, four days after a 1-13 dismantling at the hands of Issaquah, the Ballard High School baseball team recovered for a 4-2 win over Redmond.
The Beavers scored in the top of the first inning and never trailed on their way to their third victory of the season.
Ballard as a team looked sharp, finishing with seven hits and only one error. More importantly, it was able to convert those hits into runs, a problem that has plagued the team lately.
Freshman Rory Graf-Brennen led the way offensively, going two-for-three with two RBIs, a home run and a run scored.
Senior pitcher Ryan Garrett threw eight strikeouts and four walks in just more than six innings of work.
Ballard is 3-5 in KingCo and 3-7 overall. The team has won two of its last three games.
Next up for the Beavers is Skyline at 3:45 p.m. on April 14 at Whitman Middle School.
